Protocol Violation Error

Hi all, I am getting the protocol violation error when I am trying to get the connection Object using getConnection method.........i m using jdk1.3 and oracle 8.1.7 and linux server.....and the driver i m trying to use is all java thin driver......i tried all the possible ways but could not get rid of the error....it is driving me nuts.....help is badly needed........ -Bharat

Well the only issue which I consider when connecting to any database from Java is that of classpath. Other than that I have not encountered any protocol violation error. By the way just check out the access permission of the folder where you have stored your driver. Anyway I am just sending a small code. Hope this will help you. import java.io.*; import java.sql.*; public class ConnectOracle{

I got the same error when I use kshitij raval greenhorn Member # 21786's code. Can somebody give me some help. Thanks a lot.
